Wax Coke-shaped bottles with colored sugar water inside.
I seem to remember they came in either a 4 or 5 pack. The liquid in each "bottle" was a different color, not necessarally a different flavor. Each "bottle" held a 1/2 ounce or less of liquid.
Soda pop machines that dispensed glass bottles.
Coke machines distributed 8 oz glass bottles
Blackjack, Clove and Teaberry chewing gum.
Teaberry came in a pink package
Home milk delivery in glass bottles with cardboard stoppers.
Six glass quart bottles fit in metal box kept next to the front door.
Newsreels before the double feature movie.
Weren't all movies double features?
P.F. Fliers.
I was a "Cons" man, myself.
Telephone numbers with a word prefix...(Raymond 4-601).
My number was DEwey 8-something.
Peashooters.
They were really just reinforced long straws.
Howdy Dowdy.
I preferred coloring on my tv screen along with Winky Dink.
15 cent McDonald hamburgers.
I preferred 8¢ White Castles (this may be several years later)
5 cent packs of baseball cards - with that awful pink slab of bubble gum.
I liked the gum, although it wasn't always fresh (chewable) Once you were able to soften up the gum, I believe they were actually Bazooka gum but in a different shape.
